Uncage My Sanity

Locked-in
Caged sanity
Free space erased by anxiety

Solid wall
Built by myself
All fears have grown through uncertainty

I slam the door to my past
I have to flee
It's my last resort
Parts of the pages reappear
They matter no more
Just like fallen leaves

No streets, no lanes
Can hold me back
I need to carry on
Even if there's only black
Breaking these chains
Is what I'm aiming for

Never-fading echoes
Inside my head
Noise to be tuned out
I pick up the fallen leaves
Piling up a fire
Burn the anguish down

No crossroads, no barricades
Can hold me back
My will to carry on
Still stronger than the black
Don't need no guide
Neither day nor night

The numbed passion within my veins
Flatlined and erased
My exhausting walk against the stream
Stock-still faces
With all their eyes
Staring at me

Hands grab for me
Gloomy trees with their limbs

Degrading narrow paths
Steep and full of stones

Out of the void
One destination
One high-rise
The fire escapes
Step by step
Higher and higher
Breathing the air
Spreading my crippled wings

Flying deeper
Deep down
Reaching for the stones
Crawling
Crawling
Crawling
As I hit the earth
My soul's getting free
Deliverance
As I reach the stones
Crawling
Crawling
Crawling
My wings will fly no more

I locked the door to my past
Tuned out the noise
It was my last resort
Watched all the ashes from above
They matter no more
They're gone with the wind

No hand, no body
Could hold me back
My will was just too strong
I overcame the black
Keeping the balance
Between day and night

Wooden crosses
Names carved in stone
Black dresses
Celebrate the unknown

Open casket
Truth revealed

Open casket
Truth revealed

A second chance
To start from scratch
Reborn to rebuild
Uncage my sanity
From uncertainty
From uncertainty
